Jack Rabbits,

In Grant county, Ore, where the
bounty on jackrabbit scalps is FIVE cents
each, some OF the farmers stretch a wire
screen across the prairie, the screen
having meshes just large enough for a
rabbit to stick his head through. Then
men and dogs round up the rabbits,
and drive. them toward the screen, and,
in their hurry to escape, they stick their
heads through and are caught. Then
the farmers scalp the captives and let
them go, hoping that each will raise
another five cent scalp before long.
This is the story told by the Grant
county NtaOs.

from the statement made by the New

of the Treasury Department lis Erespon-

Useful and Hurtful Medicines.

s. =
There is a certain class OF remedies for
constipation absolutely useless. These are
boluses and potions made in great part Of
podophyllin, aloes, rhubarb, gamboge, and
other worthless ingredients The damage
they do to the stomachs of those who use
them is incalculable. They evacuate the
bowels, it is true, but alwaysdo so violent
bowels. Their effect is to weaken both
them and the stomach. Better far to use
the agreeable and salutary apelient, Hos
tetter's Stomach Bitters. the laxative effect
OF which is never preceded by pain, or ac-
companied by a convulsiye, violent action
of the bowels. On the contrary, itinvigor-

tire system. As a means of curing and
preventing malarial fevers, no medicine
( can compare with it, and it remedies ner-

SPLENDID OPPORTUNITIES
For Investments in Growing Towns In
Minnesota.

GOH investments IN Growing Towns In
Minnesota.
A splendid opportunity is afforded
business men and mechanics at the
new towns Of Spicer. and Hawick, in
Kandiyohi county, Minnesota. These
towns are located on the St. Cloud &
Willmar branch Of the St. p, M. & NJ.
Ry, giving a direct Duluth, st. Paul
and Minneapolis market. The road
was completed late last fall, yet three
elevators have been erected at Spicer,
and two at Hawick; and at both points
an immense amount OF. wheat has been
marketed. '.i PA 6se q
These towns have the advantage of
being located in an old. well-settled
country, and do not, like frontier towns,
have to wait until the country settles,
for business. They are surrounded by
as good farming land as there is in the
state. Good wood can be had at two
OF three dollars per cord, delivered at
your door. The climate is as healthy
as can be. found !. anywhere. The
county is free from debt. 1t has only
one village containing over one thou
sand inhabitants, the population Of the
county being about fifteen thousand.
Spicer is located on the shores of
Green Lake, q lake known and ac-
knowledged to be one Of the finest
in the state, seven miles long by five
miles wide. The lake abounds with
fish Of many varieties, among which
are Bass, Wall-eyed Pike, and the cell
ebrattd fresh water Whitefish. 1t is
surrounded by timber except the small
opening on it's southwest shore where
Spieer is located, and is entirely free
from mud and vegetation. Its waters
are noted for purity. Even in the hot
test weather the waters Of the lake are
cool, on account Of its depth and the
many springs flowing into it. Those
living on its border use it for drinking
and domestic purposes during the whole
year. A large number of St Paul and
Minneapolis citizens have ;,lre.dv sig
nifed their intention to erect cs::atagss
and spend the summer months on its
shores. A boat with capacity to con-
yey three hundred people is contracted
for, and will be placed on the lake as
soon as spring opens.
Hawick is situated on the prairie
about ten miles north of Spicer and
about one mile from heavy timber. In
its vicinity was one of the first settle
ments in this part of the country, pre-
vious to the memorable year of 1862,
and the town is now within the boun-
diaries Of the Oldest school district in
the county. II ss III a4s y,s d I'll W /;
Those contemplating change Of To-
cation will do wisely in visiting these
towns andsee for themselves. Any fur
ther information desired will be cheer
fully given by the undersigned.

by his earnest straightforward and faith
full work greatly endeared himself to hia
congregation, and it is difficult for them
to see how they are to do without him;
but as he thinks his duty lies in accept.

yet with wishes for his welfare wherever
he may make his home
